Pretty stoked. job interview went well too. Hear back tomorrow. Stoked.

I haven’t slept in 30 hours. Going to a interview now. I don’t look too wrecked, just tired.
Lot of children on this flight. In fact, right next to me. Suddenly, by miracle my ipod goes to eleven.

I really appreciate bars/restaurants/coffee shops...
when applying for a job. Like last week, I applied for this bar job and wrote about my 3 favorite beers (didn’t hear back). Today I sent in another one, this time for this cafe. Here’s what I wrote concerning my favorite beverage:
Hi, my name’s Michael, and I saw your ad, and your cafe seems like an amazing place to work. I just moved to the city and am free anytime...

- Henry David Thoreau
Though, not the woods, quite the opposite, the city. Today is my last day at Whole Foods Market. I have spent three years, one month, and 9 days working for this company. Currently, I am a Customer Service Supervisor, and go-to grill guy (we cook-out a lot, and I’m good). I was once an over night produce clerk, the data technology specialist, and the back-up graphic...

Telling the kids makes it official and so like the responsible adults we are, we’ve been putting that off. I don’t know if that makes me feel better or worse, like maybe we aren’t so sure about pulling the trigger. Wife’s big family reunion is next weekend and apparently I’m not going, so we’ll have to talk to the kids sometime before that. When this all went down I got ballsy...

the best ever death metal band in denton.
the best ever death metal band out of denton were a couple of guys, who’d been friends since grade school. one was named cyrus, and the other was jeff. and they practiced twice a week in jeff’s bedroom. the best ever death metal band out of denton never settled on a name. but the top three contenders, after weeks of debate, were satan’s fingers, and the killers, and the hospital...

Found this job listing on Craigslist for this bar....
This is in no way meant to be ironic or snarky. I’m 100% serious.
3. Magic Hat #9- The most recent addition to my favorite beers, Magic Hat is something of an enigma. Their description of “almost pale ale”, initially led me to believe that this particular beer would have some hint of bitterness, a sharp jab on the uptake, but that’s not that I got. What I got was...

I think I say more interesting things on my twitter than I do in this blog, and I strongly suggest reading back on all of my tweets. For example: last nights drunken tweets about Harry Potter. LOVE IT!

One of the things I love the most
about Ellis’s books are the way he transitions from theses staccato paragraphs and bits of dialogue that have to be read quickly, before he moves into very long paragraphs that don’t allow you to look away from the page. They demand your attention, the require that you continue to read until the chapter is finished. Often I find myself skipping ahead a sentence or two, because...
